Guest Blogger

Hi, this is Sage.

My mom asked me to be guest blogger for her today

to share my card that I made at my birthday party.

We had a Paris theme and did some watercoloring with my friends.

I started by using black watercolour and painted the bottom section, 

then I added the yellow sun just on top of the black/grey bottom. 

I took a darker pink and painted the top, making the section small. 

Then I took a lighter pink and made a bit bigger section. 

The last colour I painted is skin colour which blended in with the light pink 

making another colour as the water mixed them. After it dried I stamped the city scenes Eiffel Tower off to the side and the next to it.

After it dried, I stamped the Eiffel Tower from Papertrey Ink's City Scene in Delicata Silver

 off to the side and the sentiment (from Papertrey Ink's Fresh Flower Wraps) next to it.

Well, that's it for me.

See ya next time!

Guest Blogger -- Day 3

Hi there, Sage here.

(My mom took this picture on the Ferris Wheel at the Corn & Apple Festival

this past weekend. I had a great time!)

Today as guest blogger, I'm sharing the card that I made for
Bella, a friend I made at camp this summer.

Here's my card:

I used some of my mom's watercolour paper

and stamped the dog & sentiment from Simon Says Stamp's Simon stamp set.

Then, I stamped the bandana on another piece of paper.

Then, I coloured in the bandana using the Zig Markers

and used a water brush to give it a watercolour effect.

I used the Zig Markers to colour in the dog.

For the grass, I drew a bunch of lines with a green Zig marker

and took the water brush and made more lines going down.

Near the bottom, I just swirled it.

For the sky, I coloured around the sentiment and then I took the water brush

and brushed the colour around.

I'm linking this card up to Simon Says Stamp's 

Kid Vacation Summer Challenge.

Thanks for all your kind comments as

my mom's guest blogger!

See ya next time!

Guest Blogger -- Day 2

Hi there, Sage here.

(This weekend is the Corn & Apple Festival in our town.
My mom took this photo of me on Friday at the Midway.)

Today as guest blogger, I'm sharing the card that I made for my mom's birthday,

which I made using my mom's new Zig Clear Colour Brush Markers.

I love colouring with these markers!

Here's my card:

I used some of my mom's watercolour paper

and stamped the flowers & sentiment from PTI's Vintage Linens.

I used the Zig Markers and coloured them in.

Then, I used a water brush to give a watercolour effect.

For the leaves, I drew the darker green lines and mixed the watercolour

brush with the colour and put it around to make the leaf.

Kid Vacation Summer Challenge.

Come back tomorrow to see that card that I made for

a friend I made at camp!

See ya next time!

Guest Blogger -- Day 1

Hi there, Sage here.

(This is a picture my mom took of me in Montreal.
It was in front of a shop that sold Japanese papers.)

As she explained in this post yesterday,

my mom took a job painting this week.

So, she asked me if I'd like to be a guest blogger for the next few days.

Of course, I said yes!

Today, I'm sharing the card that I made for Jonah's birthday,

which I made using some Reverse Confetti stamps

and my mom's new Zig Clear Colour Brush Markers.

I love these markers!
They're so fun!

Here's my card:

I used some of my mom's watercolour paper

and stamped the alligator, cake & sentiment from Later Alligator

using my mom's MISTI.

I really enjoy using the MISTI.

It makes sure things are straight.

I used the Zig Markers and coloured them in.

Then, I used a water brush to give a watercolour effect.

And on the cake, I mixed a few of the colours.

It turned out nicely & Jonah loved it!
